Darling Hair Workshop + Photo Studio

Are we really talking BTS?

Hey! Welcome to our weekly email when we tell you all about what is happening at Darling Hair Workshop + Photo Studio! Yes, we are talking about Back-to-School because we would love to be a part of getting your little ones (and not so little ones) ready for the school year!

If your girl is in middle school, can we recommend highlights? Not only does the process boost confidence, it can also help with oil control and aid in styling. All of our blonding services come with a trim, and it's just the sort of thing to give your teen/tween some much needed TLC after a lazy summer. Wondering what to book? We recommend a "partial highlight (blonding service 2)." $160 and two hours, it is enough to give dimension and oil control where she needs it most!

We have appointments available!

Building Hair Trust

Welcome to our weekly newsletter! Every week we send a quick update with all the news and events happening at Darling Hair Workshop + Photo Studio, including access to last minute appointments to give you the start your day deserves.

Before going blonde this spring my last turn in the color chair was in 2019. That's right- between opening the salon and being a long time color virgin, I was really anxious to sit in a stylist's chair because:
1. I was a terrible client. Anxious. Picky. Rash. A poor planner.
2. If I did it myself I could only blame myself for messing it up.
3. It was cheaper if I did it myself.
4. I don't tend to talk myself out of bad color choices.

This winter after noticing a decent bit of grey, as well as other things indicative of being a 46 year old woman, I decided there was one shift I could easily make to shift my mood: going blonde. Only this time, I would be a client. I would sit. I would converse. I would get shampooed. And most of all, I would invest both money and confidence into one of my coworkers.

As a stylist, what was my biggest concern?
The integrity of my hair. Sure, there are the other things we think about: the tone, the placement of the foils, etc. But my hair is WEAK. It can take one good bleach-lashing, but beyond that it's spaghetti. Everything else is an afterthought to me. Toners shampoo out. Placement? If I'm not as bright up front this time I can be the next. But the integrity: if the hair has no substance or shine, what's the point of it being blonde?

My stylist now knows that about me. I watched last week as she carefully weaved out pieces of previously lightened hair so as to not take them a step too far. And this is what we mean when we talk about building trust with our clients.

Going to a salon once or twice because it's cute, and then trying another because it's bougie, and then another because your friend got her hair done there will do NOTHING bust wreak havoc on your hair. Staying with a stylist longterm will not get you into a style rut, but instead will ensure the integrity of your hair & ensure you are making a wise investment. And what is more? Over time a very special kind of friendship develops. It's a new episode that gets released every 6 weeks for 3 years. 5 years. And if you stick around, I have several clients I have served since I was pregnant with my son over 18 years ago. These are as good as family to me.

So in searching for a good salon, we would like to encourage you to rest here. Not every relationship lasts 20 years, but it could.

we’ll see you next week!

Our plant game continues to be strong.

In 2020 Rachel grabbed a snake plant from Lowe’s, determined to change her terrible plant-tending record.

6 years later we have learned that the more plants you 💀 , the more you learn about what 💀’s them. So then don’t do those things and voila! You can watch your garden grow! There is a metaphor there but we are too tired to think that deeply right now. 🤷‍♀️

Meanwhile, come get your hair done in our gorgeous green space! We have appointments available as early as TOMORROW!

We’re over here posting JUST photos like it’s 2015. We save our efforts for the hair. 😉
